Las Exposiciones Históricas de 1892
El Archivo Fotográfico de este Museo conserva una serie de positivos sobre papel tomados con motivo de la celebración de las Exposiciones Históricas de 1892. Además de estos fondos, se han localizado otras fotografías en distintas instituciones, que también documentan gráficamente ambas exposiciones y que se reúnen por primera vez en un único catálogo. Contextualizaremos estas fotografías, así como lo que aparece en ellas, profundizando en el conocimiento de un momento muy concreto de nuestra historia.
1893 Natural History and Ethnography Exhibition
Among the many items held in the museum’s Photographic Archive, we find 32 prints on paper taken on the occasion of this exhibition in 1893. These photographs serve as the starting point for offering an overview of that historical moment from different perspectives, and for reviewing the museums and institutions where the objects featured in that exhibition are housed today.
To mark the 400th anniversary of the birth of Miguel de Cervantes, the state museums are joining the celebrations with a joint catalogue of collections relating to the author.
